Damper device
Abstract
A damper device includes a first rotor disposed to be rotatable, a second rotor rotatable relative to the first rotor, and a plurality of elastic members configured to elastically couple the first rotor and the second rotor in a circumferential direction. The first rotor includes a first plate and a second plate. The first and second plates are axially opposed to each other, and fixed to be immovable in both axial and circumferential directions. The first plate includes a plurality of first holding portions and a plurality of bent portions. The plurality of first holding portions hold the plurality of elastic members. The plurality of bent portions are provided on an outer peripheral end of the first plate, and bent toward the second plate. The second plate includes a plurality of second holding portions holding the plurality of elastic members together with the plurality of first holding portions.

a third rotor configured to actuate at least two of the plurality of elastic members in series, the third rotor rotatable relative to the first rotor and the second rotor, wherein
the first rotor includes a first plate and a second plate, the first and second plates each having a disc shape, the first and second plates axially opposed to each other, the first and second plates fixed to be immovable relative to each other in both axial and circumferential directions,
the first plate includes a plurality of first holding portions and a plurality of bent portions, the plurality of first holding portions holding the plurality of elastic members, the plurality of bent portions provided on an outer peripheral end of the first plate, the plurality of bent portions bent toward the second plate,
the second plate includes a plurality of second holding portions, the plurality of second holding portions holding the plurality of elastic members together with the plurality of first holding portions, and
the third rotor is further configured to make contact in part with at least one of circumferential end surfaces of the plurality of bent portions.
9. A damper device comprising:
a first rotor disposed to be rotatable;
a second rotor rotatable relative to the first rotor; and
a plurality of elastic members configured to elastically couple the first rotor and the second rotor in a circumferential direction, wherein
the first rotor includes a first plate and a second plate, the first and second plates each having a disc shape, the first and second plates axially opposed to each other, the first and second plates fixed to be immovable relative to each other in both axial and circumferential directions,
